First Time Homeowners Tax Credit is Extended Until April 2010

Great news is on the horizon for first time homebuyers. On November 6, 2009, the government initiated a law that extends the first time homebuyer credit for an additional five months. This law is not just for Texas mortgage owners but anyone in the entire nation seeking a new mortgage.

As consumers, anytime we can grab an additional tax credit, it is great news. An extension that allows us more time is even better. While the maximum credit amount is anchored at $8,000, there is an additional “long-time resident” credit of up to $6,500 for those who do not fall into the first time homebuyer category.

Are You Able to Benefit from this Law?

While this tax extension is great news for some, for others it may not be. For those experiencing rejection for mortgage loans due to bad credit, this news doesn’t mean much. That’s where we come in.

Our specialty is credit repair for Texas based clients, but we do work with clients all across the nation. We improve credit scores on a daily basis, especially in regard to mortgage loans. The foundation of our company is built on improving credit scores for those seeking mortgage loans.

While this new law differentiates between those purchasing before or after November 6, 2009, in regard to modified adjusted gross incomes (MAGI), in both regards those with income over a certain tier do not qualify. Nor does this credit apply to any home being purchased at $800,000 or more. Most of us don’t need to worry about that.

However, if you are wishing to take advantage of this tax credit extension for first time homebuyers, but have some challenges with your credit score, we can help. We can not only enact credit repair to get your credit file where it needs to be in order to get a decent interest rate, but we may be able to get your credit file completely reworked in as little as two weeks.

How Can Rapid Rescore Help Texans with Credit Repair Efforts?

If you are seeking a mortgage in Texas but have been turned down, Rapid Rescore may just be the answer you need. The current economic situation has made obtaining a mortgage in Texas a bit challenging. When factoring in the fact that many consumers’ credit reports have taken negative hits, it makes dealing with credit files related to mortgages quite tricky. This is where Rapid Rescore can be a huge advantage.

So what exactly is Rapid Rescore and how can it help you directly? Simply put, it is the rescoring of your credit report done in a rapid manner. Certain supporting documents are required and not everyone is eligible. It’s also important to note that it is different from traditional credit repair.

In most cases, Rapid Rescore can remove erroneous information in as little as two weeks. Sometimes the process can be done in just a few days. Considering normal disputes take thirty days or more to be resolved, this is an incredible process to utilize.

Let’s look at how it works:

First, when you apply for a new mortgage or to refinance an existing one, mortgage lenders use a third party company to pull your credit report from the top three credit bureaus: Experian, Equifax and TransUnion. These third parties prepare the data the mortgage company needs. These same third parties have the ability to update certain accounts that perhaps are not up-to-date on the reporting or are not accurate or are deemed as too vague as the report was sent only to satisfy underwriting requirements.

These same third parties can also utilize proper documentation to update discrepancies on your credit report such as incorrect credit card balances. They can also remove an account that has been inaccurately placed and should have never shown on your credit report to begin with.

Once your data is updated, your credit report is then “rescored” to give an accurate measurement of credit risk. Considering FHA loans in Texas require as high as a 620 credit score, which may go up to 640 very soon, being able to show account balances paid down as well as removing any negative reports quickly can be quite a necessity. Rapid Rescore can be the key to getting you approved for the mortgage you need and locking in the rate you deserve.

When Rapid Rescore is processed by a mortgage loan officer or a credit repair specialist who understands how FICO works and who specializes in Rapid Rescore, this can be a great investment for the consumer. However, if someone not understanding how FICO works or Rapid Rescore attempts this process, it can be a nightmare instead.
